have been there but short time and

For some reason the opponents of Judge

made before the Governor and Council yes-
terday, the most serious accusation of all
that as county attorney Mr. Rounds was
guilty Of bribery in connection with the trial

man OF Calais, who, about four years ago,
shot and killed companion in a drunken
spree. Eaton was indicted for manslaugbter
plead guilty, and was fined one thousand
dollars. The inadequacy of this punishment
caused scandal, which this movement
against Judge Rounds revived. There seems
to be no doubt that afidayits have been filed
with the Governor to show that Mr.. Rounds.
then county attorney, accepted a large
sum of money to aid in securing
Eaton's Immunity from severe punishment
Why these afadavits were not presented yes
terday was not explained. 1t is probable
that Judge Rounds's opponents felt that they
could not substantiate this charge 1t is
said that the affidavits allege, not that the

ri0us to the Democratic cause to be beaten
with Mr.. Cleveland than with any other man
who could possibly be selected; and If any

Sir Edward Thornton, who is on his way to

is to stir up a commotion over these bonds

of the contending parties at home by the
adoption Of vigorous policy for the protec-
ton of British interests abroad The story
wears an air of great improbability, and
